The highlight of a trip between Wilder Dam and Kendall Station had to be 
a Song Sparrow at a feeder by the red house just across the RR tracks at 
Kendall.  Also there were 4 Am. Tree Sparrows and 30 Am. Goldfinches, 
among the usual suspects.  21 Mallards and 3 Am. Black Ducks in the 
small area of open water by the bridge before the tracks.  Little open 
water on the river above the dam, not a single bird to be found, and 
only 2 Hooded Mergansers below the dam (no eagle).

I scanned fields at Killdeer and Farrell farms, along Hogback Road, and 
at Campbell Flats, where the day's only raptor appeared, an adult 
Red-tailed Hawk.  Someone has to find a Snowy Owl in the Upper Valley!
